    My sentiment exactly! I even said that to him, why would you want to fight Roy again. Why fight someone he already beat. Hopkins is the best fight for him but I dont know if Bernard will fight him, not a good style for him. I think Chad Dawson could be a decent fight.

      Well the fight against Montell Griffin was an IBF title eliminator, it doesnt say it on boxrec but it was as i watched it last night. i remember glen saying he would fight dawson. i respect johnson and i thought a lot more people did to be honest he had to work harder than most to get to the top and he seems like a nice guy, i think he deserves one last shot at hopkins or dawson.

        I'm not sure, but I'd say Johnson probably deserves a rematch. Nard's style has changed since they last fought.......he was much more merciless. Johnson's workrate might make the fight interesting, but I'd still bet on Hopkins winning a decision with better punches.

        Please tell me when Hopkins fought Johnson, I'd like to see how they matched up(neva happenned). Since when is Chad Dawson (one of the names Glen called for) an old boxer?? It got some crazy catz postin stuff on these sites. Coming out of virtually nowhere & str8 KOing RJJ (more devastingly then Tarver or could in 3 fights, or any other fighter) should give give Glen Johnson free reign over any top 5 in the division. He fought Tarver & lost by decision, & it wasn't convincing by anymeans. If anything Chad Dawson needs some recognized names on his resume to make him a legit champ to me, right now Dawson is about as legit a champ as Hanshaw was b4 took his stripes. Yo Glen, let'em keep duckin u, papi, thank goodness for mandatory challengers for the title. Now can u Dig Dat!!
        um ya it did happen, bernard was up 100-90 on all three cards and scored a TKO in the 11th.

          ****in Road Warrior. This gotta be the oldest division in boxing.
          Hopkins needs to fight Calzaghe before he rots.

            Johnson is ageing. he probably should have got the nod over Woods but the johnson of old would have had the extra bit in the tank to finish woods or make it a clear win.

            Still he's an entertaining fighter to watch, I wouldn't mind him v hopkins or Dawson, though I think both would handle him.

              i like glen johnson, after seeing him go all out vs tarver and putting that pressure i mean after all before the jones fight he was simply a journey man and well he proved he has it was it takes to compete on the lvl that champions do. I would love to see glen get another TS
